My team & I are glad that you had a good time in Hikkaduwa. Snorkelling by the natural coral reef is a wonderful experience & this would certainly be enhanced when you have a turtle or two as your companions. This has now become a common occurrence here and the swimmers come back with fascinating stories ever so often.

Staff service is acceptable.Food not bad.Rooms with poor facilities.no tea coffee making facilitiesin Room.Bidder shower was broken and once informed it was replaced within a reasonable time.all meals were ok.

All guest comments are valuable to us & constructive criticism where needed will definitely bring results. Great care is taken by all of us to ensure guest satisfaction. Our service has always been a strong asset which has been much appreciated & your lukewarm remark would definitely propel us to improve it further.

Standard rooms are offered at a much lower rate as these are basic rooms sans the facilities available in the deluxe rooms. The tea/coffee making facilities are placed in the cupboards in the deluxe rooms.

I would like to mention here that we have been awarded the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence for 2013 for the second consecutive year. This accolade is a clear indicator of the large number of satisfied guests during the past year. I hope you will visit us once again to experience our enhanced facilities & services.

I recommend this hotel to any one who would visit Hikkaduwa. Hospitality is fantastic, Very Neatly maintained beach and pool. housekeeping is available 24X7. A good restaurant. mainly a "PEACEFUL" atmosphere! Please do not take any Ayurveda massage in that place, because it is just a business. no proper treatment involved in that.

Room Tip: Take the rooms at 1st floor... you can have a very good view of the sea!

Ayurvedha treatment at the Ayurvedha centre affiliated to the hotel is very popular among our guests & guest satisfaction has been high. Your comment is important to us & the personnel there have been alerted regarding this. We are truly disappointed that you were not able to reap any benefits from this treatment. We hope we will be able to change your mind about this treatment on your next visit.

I had my best time in Srilanka during my stay at Coral Sands Hotel. The rooms were great, so was the beach. The best thing with the beach was they had made some kind of huge gated area with stones so the waves could not get in. So you could swim as long as you wanted and the water and beach was amazing with no animals what so ever. We also has a nine year old with us on the trip and that was not a problem, the hotel is safe with both pool area and beach being great.

The food was also great and you could choose from good selection of meals. They also had a cooperation with a spa that had good prices for the hotel guests.

The best thing with the hotel was the staff, they were always helpful and kind as the Srilankan people often are told to be. Like I said the best hotel I have ever visited in Srilanka and I have been there several times now and I will definitely go back to Coral Sands when Im back in Srilanka.

We are glad that you & your nine year old sibling enjoyed swimming in the area protected by the natural coral reef. This area is safe throughout the year & is like a bay on most days. It is exceptionally beautiful during low tide on full moon days when the force of the sea is at an ebb with hardly any ripples on the surface.

Thank you for your positive comments on food, our service as well as the ayurvedha spa treatment.

We look forward to welcome you to Coral Sands on your next visit to Sri Lanka.

I recommend this hotel for anyone who would like to visit Hikkaduwa, because:1) Very kindly staff with helpful owner. 2) Great location which you can handle all your trips and shopping very easy. 3) Cleanliness everywhere, even you can ask the housekeeping in middle night they'll be ready to help.4) Professional front office, with separately guest relation desk, they're ready to handle anything you need. 5) food & beverages is perfect but the selection not the biggest you can have, but still that you can find your nice meal. 6) By the beach there's some corals which is help you for snorkeling or dive if you are in the right time of sea conditions. 7) for who interesting of fishing just 15 minutes walk you can reach the fishing port with 25LKR for enter.

* Personal recommend to everyone to book the "Deluxe" room which is huge difference from the standard room, and sure you became very nice discount if you book the hotel directly through their website. * Also to everyone you should try their traditional drink "Old Arrack".* I recommend to visit Lagoon, turtle farm, and your shopping from Galle all this you can go by "Tuk Tuk" and if you can't handle, you can ask the help from receptions

My team & I are glad that you enjoyed your stay with us. The members of staff of every department take pride in the work they do & the work is done to ensure a pleasant stay for our guests. It means a lot to us to receive a commendation from a discerning client like you.

Many thanks for the time taken to write a detailed review which covers most aspects of your stay. Your comments have been noted for improvement where needed. Thank you for your comment on the professionalism of the Front Office. My short response may not do justice to your comprehensive review.

We like clean not freaks, though I have OCD but my girl is better in that department. It was too much to have insects and worms on the bed I understand it is near the ocean but worms on the bed is unacceptable. Location is very good but too commercialized the whole stretch of beach is packed with hotels, shops and restaurants - we are not a big fan of that. It is a good location on a decent price for divers and surfers other wise the beach before Galle is a better choice as there are fewer buildings.We got tricked by my driver to stay here our initial choice was another beach house not this. In all fairness it was ok apart from the bugs and the photos they share are not true - bathrooms or the rooms are not as clean as shown not even half of as shown. Sunset is amazing and an evening walk on that stretch is worth.

Room Tip: Select a room on a higher floor - insects might be less
